I
THINK that I shall never see those devils hanging from a tree; A tree whose heavy boughs await Limp hung forms of the fourth estate; A tree that looks at God all day, Ere come the day when they will pay; A tree that may in summer wear The heads of Clintons in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain But feet are nourished by evil slain; Poems are made by fools like me But TJ's words can set us free. Doo-Dah |
We
see in the post below that Starbuck's CEO "fears the left ... And he doesn’t fear the
right."
As for the Left, they fear words and ideas. Anything
counter to
their statist ideology is a threat. To them, Thomas Jefferson is
the
most vilified of our founding fathers, because he knew, described, and
prescribed them eleven score and seventeen-years ago. I'm talking
about people like
this. |

“…To [the Left], Thomas Jefferson is the most vilified of our founding fathers…”
Rodger, you are certainly right.
The Left should also hate Andrew Jackson. He killed or displaced lots of Indians (the casino kind, not the slurpee kind). He owned slaves. He supported a small and limited central government, supported States’ rights, and ensured the collapse of the national bank.
Why is it that the Democrats call their annual celebration Jefferson-Jackson Day? Maybe we should do something to help them resolve their cognitive dissonance here.
Maybe we should propose an alternative name for the Democrats special day.
How about Marx-Lenin Day? Cloward-Piven Day? Ayers-Dohrn-Angela Davis Day? Mao-Stalin-Hitler Day?

That's a pretty good article. If half of it is accurate I found several more reasons to like TJ despite his admiration of the hell hounds that devised the French Revolution. David McCullough's biography of John Adams wasn't at all flattering toward Jefferson though he made clear Adams' love for the man. I can recommend the book but not the HBO "John Adams" mini series that followed.

Didn't rules for radicals, written by and for fecal stains, espouse denigrating that which one would destroy?
